[SR: 2757077], Paperback, [EAN: 9780936015682], Pocahontas Press, Pocahontas Press, Book, [PU: Pocahontas Press], Pocahontas Press, The poetry of Theresa Courtney Gillespie (1969-1996) captivated those who read it. Reviewers of Dead Snakes, Cats, and the IRS, Poetry of Rock and Rebellion (Mellen Poetry Press, 1995), to which Theresa contributed and served as associate editor, consistently pointed to her works as outstanding. Jeanne R. Nostrandt, in the Richmond Times Dispatch observed that 'Especially noteworthy are th tight images int hose [poems] by Theresa Gillespie,' and Dan Gribbin in the Roanoke Times wrote, 'I liked Theresa Gillespie's poetry most...I ride a motorcycle.' The power of Theresa's poetry remains. Her untimely death at the age of 26 left a void in the writing community of Blacksburg, Virginia and in the lives of those who called her friend. This book contains 39 of her poems, a complete collection except for the lost 'Caliban.' The volume celebrates her memory in the poems written for her, to her, about her, by the people she left behind. And it shares her life in an insightful biography that portrays an exceptional soul. Ophelia's Legs... is an act of love and an act of faith in the extraordinary talent of Theresa Gillespie., 2, Biographies & Memoirs, 2327, Arts & Literature, 2365, Ethnic & National, 2376, Historical, 2396, Leaders & Notable People, 3048891, Memoirs, 2419, Professionals & Academics, 2429, Reference & Collections, 1043842, Regional Canada, 2430, Regional U.S., 2437, Specific Groups, 2446, Sports & Outdoors, 300961, Travelers & Explorers, 11314, True Crime, 1000, Subjects, 283155, Books, 10248, Poetry, 271623011, Ancient, Classical & Medieval, 10250, Anthologies, 10096, British & Irish, 10271, Japanese & Haiku, 10277, Love Poems, 10159384011, Regional & Cultural, 10159396011, Themes & Styles, 9966, United States, 10159402011, Women Authors, 17, Literature & Fiction, 1000, Subjects, 283155, Books, 468236, Literature, 491406, American Literature, 491394, Creative Writing & Composition, 491408, English Literature, 491404, Literary Theory, 684272011, World Literature, 468206, Humanities, 465600, New, Used & Rental Textbooks, 2349030011, Specialty Boutique, 283155, Books<
